The raised continuous border acts as a retainer, preventing the tiles from moving. So glue isn't required. The last tile in each row is cut 1/8" larger, to compensate temperature related shrinking and the tiles shrinking as they dry. Now the concrete slab had no retainer edge, so gluing the two perimeter rows was required. However I should've glued them all as the tiles have dried like a pencil eraser leaving gaps between the tiles.
You are gifted! That looks amazing. Great job!
That looks nice! I just got some rubber pavers for by my backdoor. Hope they look as good as yours 👍
How are they holding up when it rains? Do the ends curl up at all? I'm thinking abt purchasing too
Video is a work of art!!👩🎨
A silent hero!
Good job and great video. Sub'd!
I'm a newbie DYI-er. If that wasn't sand as the top layer, could someone tell me what it was?
Limestone Screening.
Great video. Thanks! Quick question: didn't you have to glue the tiles on the pergola floor?

why not use fine sand on top so it settles and compacts better
Drainage.
@@Boonerp thank you!
I'll keep this short, and sweet. You cut the sht out of those pavers sir! What blade was in your jigsaw?
Thanks. Wood jigsaw blades 10 TPI.
That made your cuts look fantastic. One would think the rubber would clog a toothy blade from the friction.
Nicely done. Can you come do mine?
